Our Journey
Our Philosophy
Beejom is an animal sanctuary and sustainable agricultural farm located in Tajpur Village in Bulandshahr ,Uttar Pradesh. We use natural farming techniques to grow food. The agricultural practices at Beejom are farm animal-centric. All the products of the Indian indigenous cattle at the farm are used to manufacture organic manure for the fields. The planting is mostly done with heirloom seeds. The farm hugely promotes Indian millets and traditional foods and we see that as the most obvious way of restoring the food security, health and ecological wealth of the nation. The farm uses solar power and biogas, uses rainwater harvesting techniques and practises vermiculture. Therefore we are completely off the grid.
Our aim is to work with farmers at the grassroots level and help them restore their holdings into organic holistic farms.

Cattle Preservation Centre
Our indigenous cattle are the heart of the farm. An incredible 12 breeds of indigenous cattle grace our cowshed. We have Milch and draught breeds, cows and bulls, young and old and we are a Dung farm, not a dairy. We totally have 142 bulls and cows (including calves) now.We have in our shed the Gir, Sahiwal, Tharparkar, Red Sindhi and Kankrej, Rathi and Hariani breeds from the northwest of India. We have the Malenad Gidda, Vechur, Halikar and Kangeyam breeds from the southern states. We also have the rare Swarna Kapila or the golden cow.

Dung Ho
We Celebrate the role of dung in producing clean food and adding sustainability to a farm with a zero carbon footprint. The yields are amazing and our whole farm is off the grid thanks to our cattle. We save indigenous seeds, use cow dung to make biogas, solar to make electricity and use indigenous earthworms and bees for greater fertility and pollination.

Beejom Strijan
This is the most happening group at the farm. “Strijan” is our lovely Beejom women’s farmers collective. The members are women farmers from around our farm. They belong to the most impoverished section of the farming community. They have no land and are migrant farmers who have always tilled others' lands. They now farm in NCR far away from their villages on leased lands.
These beautiful, vibrant, talented and cheerful women have now come together and resolved to become entrepreneurs. They live in temporary homes that have a thick sheet of plastic and chatai for a roof.
